courts D'ORSA.Y'S PICTURE Or OUR SAVIOUR.
A picture of Christ by Count d'Orsay f And truly, as pictures go, the gay -Count has produced a work that might take its place among sous of the least discreditable to our Royal Academy. It has been painted per- haps not without an eye to the mirror: the maxim that the artist appeari in his work is at least as tree as nenal. Faults might be found-but theit are not peculiar to the Corint; Mid be ,PaYs us the compliment of :Wm)* the faults of the English school rather than the French-the abstracted expression, the feeble drawing, and,the heavy colouring. But there is some solemnity in this new and unforeseen aspect of Count d'Orsay, and much pattern beauty. Mr. Richard Lane-is making a lithographof the painting; which he has copied with his usual skill.
